Abstract: A system and a method are provided for automatically discovering one or more pool devices of a connected aquatic system. The one or more pool devices can be provided in a form of one or more secondary panels and one or more pool components. A primary panel can broadcast a discovery message to identify the one or more secondary panels and/or the one or more pool components connected to the primary panel of the connected aquatic system. An identification response is generated and transmitted from the one or more secondary panels and/or the one or more pool components in response to the discovery message from the primary panel. The primary panel can receive and process the identification response and update a discovery status for each of the one or more secondary panels or the one or more pool components based on the identification response.

Abstract: A system for measuring ionizing radiation with a scintillator incorporates a first assembly of at least two rod-shaped scintillator elements, which can be optically coupled to one another via their opposed face ends. The first assembly of scintillator elements is coaxially enclosed by a second assembly of interconnectable sheath elements. According to the invention, one scintillator element (11), one sheath element (12) and two face-end window elements (131, 132) form a scintillator module (10) in each case, which is optically and mechanically connectable to additional scintillator modules. The individual scintillator elements can thus be produced as encapsulated scintillator modules by means of “suitable” sheath elements and window elements. This provides for a simple and reliable manipulation and assembly of the measuring assembly at the site of its application.
